Digital India
Silicon Valley, meet Jharkhand. The government of Jharkhand, a state of about 33 million people in eastern India, has signed an agreement to use Oracle Cloud to improve government services and, more importantly, as part of its push to make Jharkhand an attractive home for startups.

Jharkhand's cloud embrace and startup push are just the latest progress in India's digital transformation. Equally ambitious projects are popping up across India, prompted largely by Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Digital India initiative. Oracle added two new accelerants of its own: plans to open Oracle's first data center in India within 12 months and availability in India of Oracle Enterprise Resource Planning Cloud with new capabilities to comply with India's recently enacted goods and services tax. News from Oracle OpenWorld India.
